Mitten Weather (To the Tune of: Farmer in the Dell)

The Thumb in the thumb place

Fingers all together

This is the song we sing

When it is mitten weather

Winter Pokey (To the Tune of: Hokey-Pokey)

Ten warm mittens, hanging on the line, You put your right mitten in,
One blows away and then there are nine You take your right mitten out.
Nine warm mittens, one without a mate, You put your right mitten in,
A squirrel carries one away and that leaves eight. And you shake it all about.
Eight warm mittens, just eight not eleven, You do the winter pokey, [shiver]
One gets buried in the snow and that leaves seven. And you turn yourself around.
Seven warm mittens, which one do you pick? That's what it's all about!
I'll pick the red one and that leaves six.
Six warm mittens, put one on to try. Other Verses:
Then you take it from the line and that leaves five. You put your left mitten....
Five warm mittens, we had ten before! You put your right boot....left boot…
A fluffy bunny needs one and that leaves four! You put your long scarf in....
Four warm mittens, two for you and two for me, You put your warm cap in....
I lost one on the ski slope and that leaves three. You put your snowsuit in....
Three warm mittens, looking very new,
One falls into the mud and that leaves two.
Two warm mittens, drying in the sun,
A bird comes down and snatches it and that leaves one.
One warm mitten, what good is one?
A little mouse can have a bed, and that leaves none!
